You should also look for "ghostview" at the same site that you find
"ghostscript" (it might be listed a "gsview").

gsview provides a MUCH more user friendly interface on top of 
ghostscript.  I have gsview on my machine at work and have been quite
pleased with it.  If you can't find it at the above site, let me know
(preferably via e-mail) and I'll track down the site I grabbed it
from.
